Radio Access Network Planning

2018 - Present

Ericsson (M) Sdn. Bhd.

• Lead designing and planning the radio access network architecture, which includes determining the location and configuration of base stations, antennas, and other network elements. Analyze coverage requirements, traffic patterns, and user demand to ensure efficient network deployment.
• Allocate radio frequencies for different wireless technologies, such as GSM, CDMA, or LTE, based on the available spectrum and regulatory requirements. The frequency spectrum is carefully manage to minimize interference and optimize network performance.
• Assess network capacity requirements and plan for future growth. Analyze traffic patterns, user behavior, and network performance data to determine the optimal number of base stations, cell sizes, and other network parameters to meet user demand.
• Managing interference is crucial for maintaining a reliable wireless network. Radio access planners employ various techniques, such as frequency planning, power control, and interference cancellation, to minimize interference and improve signal quality.
• planning network expansions and upgrades. Assess the need for additional base stations, new technologies, or capacity enhancements to accommodate growing traffic and provide superior network performance.
• collaborate with different teams, including network engineers, site acquisition teams, and regulatory authorities, to ensure smooth network deployment and compliance with regulations. They also coordinate with equipment vendors to evaluate new technologies and solutions for network improvement.

Radio Access Optimization Engineer

2012 - 2018

Digi Telecommunication Sdn. Bhd.

• analyze network performance by collecting and interpreting data from various sources. They assess key performance indicators (KPIs) such as signal strength, call drop rates, data throughput, and network capacity to identify areas for improvement.
• identify and troubleshoot network issues, such as coverage gaps, interference, and poor call quality. They investigate the root causes of problems and implement appropriate solutions to enhance network performance and user experience
• optimize network parameters to achieve optimal coverage, capacity, and quality. They adjust parameters such as transmit power, antenna tilt, handover thresholds, and access control to maximize network efficiency and minimize interference
• analyze interference sources and implement strategies to mitigate their impact.
